The Money Saving Expert said that you could net free cash in time for Christmas by making the most of certain bank-switching deals.
In general, switching usually takes seven working days and closes your old account, says Martin.
Martin says that switching to the Lloyds Bank could net you £175.
The money whizz revealed that the Lloyds deal pays the quickest at just three working days after your switch is completed.

This means you can get it by November 29, which is more than enough time to spend it before the festive season.
And the deal gets even sweeter as you could net 12-months free Disney+ or choose other perks such as an annual magazine subscription.
But punters need to hurry with the deal ending at midnight tonight.

Viewers should note that the minimum pay-in is £2,000 a month after switching to the Lloyds Bank account.

You could also then make another switch to Nationwide bank and rake in £200.
By opening a linked 8 per cent regular saver you could net the cash by December 4.
To make things even better there is no minimum pay in.
Martin also vouched for First direct where you could net a free £175 if you switch over to a 7 per cent regular saver account.
You only need to pay in £1,000 once, and could receive the funds by December 22, says the money saving whizz.
You would need to combine all the bonuses to be in with the shot of netting £550.
However, you may not be eligible for all the bonuses and time may restrict you from getting everything just before Christmas Day so it is worth checking with banks and reading the small print.
If you are not in so much of a rush, Martin said that moving to a new Barclays Bank Account could see you rake in some money by January 5.
You can receive £175 shortly after the new year but there are some conditions you must fulfil.
The minimum pay in is £800 month but you need to join a blue rewards scheme, two active direct debits and participate in digital banking.
Previously on his show, Martin informed homeowners of the incredible hack that could also halve car insurance.
The money expert urged homeowners to look for quotes around three weeks before your renewal is due and it could halve the cost of your insurance.
Martin advised customers to get quotes around 21 days before their renewal is due.

He then displayed a graph that depicted the average quotes for car insurance across a period of days running up to the renewal date.
Martin went on to explain that for someone who is paying £700 if they get their insurance on the day of renewal - if they get a quote elsewhere, they'll be paying £1,200.
